She hated it - the very existence of child trafficking, the snatchers lurking on the streets ready to pounce. Why had she been the

one to endure such horror?

She had never truly moved on. Nightmares haunted her sleep, so she trained relentlessly, becoming stronger with each passing

day.

In her dreams, she thwarted the disaster over and over, grasping her brother's hand tafter time. Waking up only reminded her

how surreal the world felt.

"Do you believe it, Maja? He's still alive, still waiting for me. Sometimes, | swear | can hear him calling'sis"."

Maja reached for a tissue from the box nearby and handed it to her. The woman didn't take it. Instead, she lay down and slowly

closed her eyes, tears streaming like a faulty faucet.

Maja didn't know what to say and left quietly, giving her the solitude she needed.

Back in her bedroom, sleep eluded Maja, a deep sense of melancholy washing over her. It was then that Carol called, inquiring

when she'd return home.

"I'm not sure yet, Carol. You're really getting married?"

There was a brief silence before Carol laughed on the other end, "Yeah, if you don't cback soon, I'll be hitched before you

know it."

Maja felt a pang of guilt. Carol was her best friend, but ever since she'd been in Greenfield, life had thrown so much at her that

she'd hardly had tfor a proper catch-up; now she would probably miss Carol's a wedding.

"I'll try to cback as soon as | can."

"Maja, | just wanted to let you know. I'm aware you're busy there. By the way, didn't you askto keep an eye on Zoey? She and

Fitch seem to be up to something. But according to Mia, it's all one-sided on Zoey's part. Mia's made sure the whole social circle

knows about it, and Fitch hasn't bothered to clear the air. He's even getting engaged to Wendy of the Stapleton family. Wendy just

cback from abroad, and their families are set to meet."

Maja stood frozen, feeling out of touch with the goings-on back home. Since when did Fitch, notorious for his aversion to women,

suddenly decide to get married?

"Is Zoey doing okay?"

"Well, not so much. She's been working hard, landing sbig contracts for your company. She's earned a lot of praise in the

industry at least."

Maja grasped the situation; Zoey still couldn't let go of Fitch. And who could blher? Fitch was a standout, even among the

Greenfield elite. His past tenderness towards Zoey had obviously left its mark. If he kept being cold to her in the first place, she

couldn't fall for him.

Maja was about to ask more when a loud thud cfrom outside her room.

"Carol, I'll have to call you back later; something's cup here."

"Sure, Maja. Take care."

After hanging up, Carol rubbed her temples wearily.

The TV buzzed with news of the Miller Group CEO's imprisonment and his sole heiress's impending nuptials with the alleged

mastermind behind it all. The story had been everywhere all day, from news channels to Twitter trends.

Carol grabbed the remote and turned the TV off. At that moment, her phone buzzed with a message, right on cue from Zoey.

Since their last encounter at the evening party, they'd kept in occasional contact. Clearly, Zoey had seen the news and reached out

to offer comfort.

[You holding up okay?]

[Haha, couldn't be better, just enjoying sR&R at home.]

Glancing at the reply, Zoey wanted to ask what exactly was going on with the Miller family, but the mastermind behind it all had

kept a tight lid on things. In just a few days, the Miller Group announced the handover of all shares to a stranger, followed by the

CEO's arrest for investigation.

Rumors linked it to a car accident from years ago that had claimed three lives, caused by the Miller Group CEO.

The exact details, however, were kept from the media. Speculation suggested Felix had something to do with it.

Arter all, the CEO had always been rational and doting on his daughter. Why would he pass the company to an outsider rather than

his own flesh and blood, especially when the man wasn't even married to Carol yet?

As long as the wedding was set, he was always considered as an outsider.

Zoey had seen Felix at the previous night's gala, a rising star with remarkable savvy. He had shed his rough edges for a refined

demeanor, standing out in any crowd. As the new CEO of the Miller Group, he'd already acquired a few competitors, making

headlines.

The media was abuzz, but the truth was known by very few.

Zoey worried about Carol and what the real story was between her and Felix. But it seemed Carol wasn't ready to talk about it.
